Needlepoint Classes


We've added "3K 3-Day" Canvas Embellishment Workshops w/Paula for 2024! All sessions will be held at the shop. You will be able to make progress on a canvas of your choosing - please purchase or order a new canvas from 3 Kittens that will arrive no later than two months prior to your class date. You may need to allow up to 4-6 months if you need to order your canvas. You may also want to watch for your favorite artists on our trunk show calendar. We have lots of ideas for three days of fun - stitching and surprises for everyone! Register early to get your spot!

Join a group of up four stitchers to learn the basics of this creative needle art. Whether you are brand new to needlepoint or need a refresher, this is the class for you. We will help you choose a small project (on 13 mesh canvas) and the perfect threads to bring it to life. You will need a small embroidery scissors and stretcher bars (available here), and your class purchase includes tapestry needles, a needle threader and our How To Needlepoint Handout. Your instructor will teach you the basic needlepoint stitch (called the Tent Stitch), how to open a skein of thread, beginning and ending your thread and what order to stitch the different areas in your canvas. Lots of other tips and tricks shared during class - all you need is your enthusiasm to learn something new!
